What’s On: Top Girls (Ad Astra)


Top Girls

20 July – 6 August

Ad Astra, 57 Misterton St, Fortitude Valley


Set in the early 1980s, Top Girls depicts the lifestyle and life choices of its central character, Marlene. A successful career woman, who’s just received a major promotion, who indisputably fought her way to the top to get it – Marlene’s star is rising.

To celebrate, she throws a fabulous Saturday night dinner party for herself. In attendance are not friends, family, or colleagues, but famous women from history, literature, and legend. The women share their extraordinary experiences of life, work, love, and children.

Enter Marlene to Top Girls Employment Agency, a dazzling hot and prominent business in central London where Marlene has just scored the prime position. She is Top Girl in a man’s world, but she has a sister whose life is very different. The uncovering of their secrets reminds us of what is really important and what we are prepared to lose.

Matilda Award nominee Mikayla Hosking will direct a cast of Queensland actors in this production of Top Girls, many of them new to the Ad Astra stage.
